What do they look like after an accident with a Ford F350 that they pulled in front of without looking?

Bozo the Clown car. Okay for very local travel but you might as well have a golf cart.

The Japanese have one with exchangeable cartridge batteries coming out. Instead of charging, you just pull and drop a battery.

If the Changli vehicles were $900 in the US, they would be on every street in America. At that point it wouldn’t be rare anymore, it wouldn’t be strange or quirky. It would just be normal.

Since these cars have a higher price, they will primarily be in the hands of green-tech extroverts that will make a big show about their oddball purchase.


Much better looking and performing EVs are sitting on dealer lots, unwanted and unsold. As the article says, the only people buying these pieces of crap (at a price well north of $900) will be enviro-poseurs.

A back seat big enough for at least two full bags of bugs for dinner.

This type of EV is where the U.S. manufacturing move to EV should have started. It would have found a market without needing government subsidies and then could have evolved from there. without government subsidies.
